Still, not too many people are drinking 6x Red Bulls at once, the scenario you brought up as an example. Meanwhile swathes of the world are pulling into Starbucks daily, many for their first time.
It's also not two 12oz coffees, it's one at 8am and another at 5pm. It just kinda seems like everything you write here is trying to cause a reaction and it feels manipulative.
You write all this just to reveal your actual point:
> If you give two tall Starbucks coffees to a caffeine naive person, it will definitely cause some notable effects.
Well, sure. We can all agree on that. And one of the notable effects is increased fat oxidation. Notice how uninteresting this observation is by itself. No need to dress it up as something more.
Yes, absolutely. But I rarely consume caffeine so my experience is very different than yours.
The study used caffeine-naive individuals. That is, people without any caffeine experience or tolerance.

Frequent coffee drinkers tend to underestimate the impact of their caffeine tolerance. A seasoned coffee drinker consuming two of the strongest coffees on the market day after day is a different story than caffeine-naive individuals skipping straight to excessive doses of caffeine without any tolerance.
